Is there a video of Dustin & Amber's Dog conversation??

I just looked through the thread with that title here & couldn't find one.

Carrie, I agree the article was somewhat wrong. TMZ got it more right; however, the first time Amber told Jameka she didn't say anything about it being wrong. The second time Amber brought it up, Jameka warned her.

ETA: Rubyroo, Fox's article was from the first day/time Amber talked to Jameka, where Jameka didn't say anything.

I just think it is silly that this is making the news. Please, what does America care about BB. LOL, I know we are watching but I just don't feel like this one girl's stupidity is newsworthy.

What makes me angry, is that it was okay for Dick to verbally harrass and threaten two women on the show, but that didn't make it anywhere on the news; only some blogs. I guess that COULD be why battered women/wives feel like the system just can't/won't help them. No one speaks out enough againt it.

I'm not in ANY way saying I'm condoning Amber's words..glad they made it to the news. Too bad Ivette's trashing of Kaysar didn't make it last year as well.

Costa...if you go to tmz.com, they say something about it, but not much....

But seriously, Amber needs to go, that's so wrong to say...for her to be that dense...

This has absolutely nothing to do with politics. They were racist remarks.

Amber's comments have nothing to do with democrats, republicans, liberals, facists etc.... only about Amber's views

Cricket- Thanks for that info- I still hate fox news! And I agree with your comment about Dick not making the news- what a strange world we live in.

There's a chance Allison Grodner and Arnold Shapiro might be Jewish -- it makes one wonder what their reaction is to Amber's rant.

Don't forget the Dustin and Amber comments, were extremely racist.

Denecee - it's "newsworthy" because Amber is now a "tv personality" who made anti-semetic comments on a television show.

I hope she was ready for her 15 minutes of fame, because they're not going to be pleasant when she gets out of that house. She's already an emotional mess...she's really gonna need therapy after this show.

Wow! It must have been a slow news day. I am however not surprised to see it being reported.

Amber's mouth was bound to get her into trouble. Her viewpoint on a lot of things are disturbing but that's just me.
Every year on BB someone says something offensive/racist. Next year will be no different. It's their own fault if they choose to mouth off.

LOL...laughing because CNN, CBS, NBC, and ABC all lean left and since Fox leans right, people HATE the channel. I, as a moderate, middle of the road conservative...welcome ALL the news channels.

Go America!

Can you imagine the people who don't watch BB, wondering who the heck is Amber and why do I care what she has to say about anybody?
IMO, BB should stay out of the "real" news.

It is possible Ambers mouth ended up making News and Dicks didn't for a couple of reasons. 1) Ambers was live on Show time and i think most of dicks was before or after BBAD except for the tea which was the tail end of a rant.
2) Amber has a racist view of an entire group of people. Where Dick was contained to the game. And Jen never crumbled under Dicks rants. (he also did not go after Kail in the same way or the same extent as he did Jen which does point to game play and not just hate)
3) Ambergate happened after bannergate so people were already waiting for the next BB story.

Maybe Fox didn't say anything about Dick's behavior toward Jen & Kail because Jen & Kail signed up for this show knowing it gets ugly in there but Jewish people didn't sign up for it. But I still think it's not newsworthy.

it being aired on Showtime probably made the difference - one would think racial comments like that would be against the rules, considering what they say is broadcast 24/7, give or take a few hours.

What I found more disturbing are the comments on TMZ website regarding this...now those shocked me with all those who agree with Amber :-( In the few comments I read. I did not read them all.

SanfranJosh...I so loved your post! TY.

Isn't it a puzzle none of those (entertainment or not) news people cares about that Dog conversation between Dust and Amb??

The other one I read that bothered me was Dusty's story. He said a friend of his used to dress up like Blacks with him and go TP people's houses(something like at least two each time) and let Blacks get blamed for their pranks.

Is there any eye witnesses to that conversation here among us?
Is there a vid out there for this one?
Has TMZ or whoever talked about it yet?

I have a feeling that the reason that no one in the "media" is discussing the Dustin/Amber Dog conversation is that there is no documentation of it. I haven't seen a video or a transcript...so it's all word of mouth.

It'll be an eye opener for Amber when she gets out of the house & is forced to face video of her own words though.

What is disturbing about Amber's comments is that she marrs her own mother and sister. We only know that her sister and mom think this way also based on AMber's words....words that have been know to be less than truthful...her family will endure some issues for themselves based on the words Amber placed in their mouths

It's really sad that she had to make these bigoted remarks to Jameka--a person in the house who knows how negative generalisations like that can really hurt.

I am watching Showbiz Tonight on the CNN Headline News channel. They just did a bit on Amber's racial comments and they showed her talking to Jameka and saying all the nasty things about Jewish people and New York. OUCH. They said their calls to CBS about this have gone unanswered.

And Amber thinks she will be America's Choice if they have a vote. Ha Ha Ha...
